Ingredients

• 4 pieces Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 pieces Bread slices (preferably sourdough or country loaf)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Chives (fresh, chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and whisk together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Toast the bread slices until golden and crispy. Allow them to cool slightly, then crush them into bite-sized pieces by hand. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Swirl the butter to coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Pour in the whisked eggs and stir gently with a silicone spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan regularly as they cook. Continue stirring until the eggs are soft and just set, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.

Step 5

In another small skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the crushed bread pieces and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become golden and slightly crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

To plate, divide the scrambled eggs evenly onto two plates. Top each portion with the toasted bread pieces, ensuring they are evenly spread across the eggs for texture.

Step 7

Sprinkle chopped chives and grated Parmesan cheese over each plate for a finishing touch.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy your Egg Crusher with your favorite breakfast beverage.
